I recently attended Cape Fear Realtor’s annual “Economics of Housing Conference”. As the market evolves in New Hanover, Pender and Brunswick County, the remodeling industry is showing clear and consistent growth.
Homeowners are staying in their homes longer than ever, taking advantage of the low interest rates they may have secured years ago. As a result, the demand for renovations is stronger than ever, fueling the booming remodeling industry.
Over time, homeowners often find their needs evolving—whether it’s adapting spaces for growing children, accommodating adult children moving back home, or creating room for aging parents. Many people are making the decision to renovate now rather than sell. Improving their spaces to make them more functional, comfortable, and suited to their changing lifestyles without the need to move.
